Islamic Republic

Pezeshkian's comments come after sources said earlier on Friday that the chances of the Iran conflict expanding in the near future have decreased.

Hamas won't disarm, the West Bank is burning, Iran is stuck, and Israel's answer is campaigning. Prof. Michal Bar-Asher Siegal on what the wait costs.

The US has to remain strong enough to make Iran's regime afraid, smart enough to know when to pull its troops back, and patient enough to let the Persian people finish what military pressure began.

After months of silence, the Islamic Republic finally released footage of its elusive supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei. The clip was less than 15 seconds long, undated, and location undisclosed...

BBC Persian reported that the announcement comes amid the renewed presence of morality police and heightened street harassment of women perceived to be violating Iran’s compulsory dress code.

The decision follows a spate of attacks on UAE-owned tankers and Tehran's rejection of talks with the US.

A blockade would impose real costs on Tehran and make Israel safer. But weakening Iran is not the same as toppling the regime. It is the difference between buying time and solving the problem.

Netanyahu also recalled a phrase someone had said that "the first Islamic republic with nuclear weapons will be the Islamic Republic of Britain."

Was this comment diplomatic? Obviously not. Was it a sweeping exaggeration? Certainly. Does it reflect Netanyahu’s view of Britain? Probably far more accurately than the usual diplomatic niceties do.
